GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE INSTITUTION

The history of the Technical University of Liberec goes back to 1953, when the Technical
College of Mechanical Engineering was established. Since that time the College has offered
academic programmes in Mechanical Technology, and in the Design/Construction of Textile,
Glass, Ceramics and other Machinery. These academic programmes and related research
activities corresponded directly to the typical industries found in Northern Bohemia. In the
late 1950s, a new academic programme - Textile Technology - was offered at the College. In
1960, the College was divided into two faculties, the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and
the Faculty of Textile Engineering. Also, the name of the College was changed to the College
of Mechanical and Textile Engineering.
Between 1990 and 1995, four new faculties were founded. On January 1, 1995, the College of
Mechanical and Textile Engineering gained the status of a university, and became the
Technical University of Liberec. In June 1995, the sixth faculty - the Faculty of
Mechatronics, Informatics and Interdisciplinaries Studies - was established.
The University has an enrolment of more than eight thousand students. The academic
programmes offered at the University, and the research performed by the academic staff is of
great benefit to the City of Liberec and its surrounding region. The University´s graduates are
able to satisfy the local demand for specialists in engineering, textile industries, for
elementary and secondary school teachers, and for architects, economists and business
specialists. The University´s academic staff and students take part in research and co-operate
closely with foreign universities.
